There was only ever a very fine line between goth and d-beat, you know besides the whole politics. Visually these kids look more like GBH than Bauhaus. As Post-Punk moved into Positive-Punk the style and aesthetic moved from cold, simple sterility to a reflection of alienation in a generation of gap-year glory boys and girls. These kids are the epitome of independent fashion. After the jump witness the children of the shadows.
